As Twitchy reported Monday, it seemed like every social media platform in existence — including YouPorn and Pinterest — had banned Alex Jones and Infowars. Facebook, Apple, Google, YouTube, Spotify … all the big names — except one — got together and erased Jones from their services.

The holdout was Twitter, and CEO Jack Dorsey explained why in a thread Tuesday night:

We didn’t suspend Alex Jones or Infowars yesterday. We know that’s hard for many but the reason is simple: he hasn’t violated our rules. We’ll enforce if he does. And we’ll continue to promote a healthy conversational environment by ensuring tweets aren’t artificially amplified.

Truth is we’ve been terrible at explaining our decisions in the past. We’re fixing that. We’re going to hold Jones to the same standard we hold to every account, not taking one-off actions to make us feel good in the short term, and adding fuel to new conspiracy theories.

If we succumb and simply react to outside pressure, rather than straightforward principles we enforce (and evolve) impartially regardless of political viewpoints, we become a service that’s constructed by our personal views that can swing in any direction. That’s not us.

Accounts like Jones' can often sensationalize issues and spread unsubstantiated rumors, so it’s critical journalists document, validate, and refute such information directly so people can form their own opinions. This is what serves the public conversation best.

You’re very terrible and everyone knows it. Your actions are to continually bend over in favor of nazis, racists, misogynists and misinformers plus bots. You’ve done it to prop up your stock price and made the world worse. https://t.co/avXh3dmmiu

He’s partly correct; giving Willis a Twitter account has made the world worse.

This poorly thought out, ill-advised statement is contradictory. Essentially: "We didn't suspend Alex Jones because he hasn't broken the rules we came up with ourselves. We have to be impartial. We can't just go making up rules!" https://t.co/4B3TiyF3nU

then change your rules. You are perpetuating and enabling great harm to the country and the world. Clean it up. And stop with your patronizing tweets to us. This is on YOU, @jackhttps://t.co/fvmOv4Ht1H

Don't get mad. Get even. Stop using Twitter. It's hard to imagine worse people to go to bat for than Alex "Sandy Hook truther" Jones, or the Proud Boys who invaded Portland. But @Jack wants their business more than yours. #DeleteTwitterhttps://t.co/Bnn3kXiDy7
